304. Which wind results from a land mass cooling more quickly at night than an adjacent water area?
A land breeze occurs at night when land cools faster than adjacent water, creating higher pressure over land and causing air to flow from land to water. This contrasts with a sea breeze, which occurs during the day when land is warmer than water, and distinguishes the phenomenon from regional winds like the Mistral.
